Vortex Of Clutter are a band from Turkey that plays a melodic and extreme mixture of death and thrash metal and this is a review of their 2014 album "Eclipse Of The Reason Beyond Time" which was released by WormHoleDeath Records.

A very epic classical music orientated sound starts off the album giving the recording the feeling of a fantasy movie soundtrack or television series and after the intro the music starts to go more into an old school technical death metal sound along with a good mixture of growls and screams and you can also hear a great amount of thrash influences in the bands musical style.

The solos and leads the band uses are very melodic and bring in a great amount of talent and skill along with some traditional and classic metal influences and you can also hear some more modern metal elements in the bands musical sound at times along with all of the musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them

As the album progresses spoken word parts can be heard in certain sections of the recording along with a great amount of blast beats and you can also hear a touch of metalcore in some of the tracks and on the songs also brings in a small dose of 70's psychedelic rock and as time goes on by the music starts to get more diverse and also brings in a small amount of melodic clean singing vocals at times.

Vortex Of Clutter go back to the 90's style of technical death metal and mixes it in with elements of thrash and a modern day melodic death sound to create a style that would appeal to both old school and modern fans of extreme metal the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover politics, society, history and anti fascism themes.

In my opinion Vortex Clutter are a very great sounding melodic and technical mixture of death and thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this group. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Rise Of The" "Eclipse" "Have Fun" and "Conquerors". 8 out of 10.
